Time Period 2: 1648-1815
This lesson goes over the second time period of 1648-1815, the end of the Thirty Years' War through the Napoleonic era. We will review the second theme of Poverty and Prosperity and see how that, plus the first theme of Interaction between Europe and the World, applies to this period. My suggestion is to review the Key Concepts of period 2 that are available below, as well as the PDF of Theme 2, Poverty and Prosperity, along with the Smartboard lesson that includes some practice questions.

At this review session, we will also look at a series of short answer questions from released exams and discuss the best way to score full credit on them.
